The June Paper Pumpkin kit was designed by Sara Douglas, CEO of Stampin' Up! with the idea that the cards and the box could be passed on to #sharesunshine during this stressful time. The kit comes with materials for 8 cards PLUS extra die-cuts to decorate the cheery yellow box for re-gifting. Ideas for filling the box are all things yellow - from candies to post-it notes, fill it with sunny yellow fun things & send it off to cheer a friend. You could even create the cards & send them to a friend to share - all wrapped up with yellow tissue in a yellow box. Now that's sharing sunshine for sure!
The cards as presented are charming but I like to create my own designs, using the products in the kit, along with other Stampin' Up! materials from my stash. Each kit comes with a list of coordinating colours so adding a bright mat or card base in a matching colour really stretches these kits. Lots of bang for the buck - that's how we P.P. Peeps roll!
Here then is a parade of this month's alternatives.
